How To Mount An NTFS Hard Drive
I put in a hard drive into my computer that already is NTFS partition, all I want to do is read from it so I can get my music off of it, how would I be able to mount the drive so I can just read from it without having to format or destroy any data?
I run SuSE 9.0 pro and the hard drive should be installed as HDD or HDD1 thanks for your help |
Do all of this as root. Create a directory to mount it in, I'd suggest /mnt/ntfs. Then do
mount -t ntfs /dev/hdb /mnt/ntfs The exact command will change depending on where you put your NTFS drive. If it's the slave on your primary IDE channel, then it's going to be mounted from /dev/hdb. If it's master on your secondary channel then /dev/hdc. If slave on secondary channel then /dev/hdd. |
it worked!
thank you so much |
